re: Question about 'Can't access some websites while using a shared PPPoE connection' Sunday, July 21, 2002 at 7:12 am Posted by opr8tr (42 messages posted) If none of the previous suggsetions are working, try using a router instead of ICS. They are inexpensive and also can add additional security if you get one withe a firewall. I use a Netgear RP114. While I do not have PPPoE, a router eliminates sharing the connection which seems to be the root of your problem. Hope this helps.
